Some eccentric VBCW characters might be found in MicroArt Studio's Wolsung World steam punk range, while their 30mm Discworld Miniatures line is worth a look if you're looking for a suitably heroic postie...

Mirliton have taken over the old Grenadier miniatures line, including their Call of Cthulhu range - now re-badged as 'Nightmares'. Cowering among the cosmic horrors that lurk in this line are a number of VBCW-conversionable sets of armed civilians, such as Gangland Gunmen, Vampire Hunters, Dauntless Dames and the like.

Paul is producing some great figures, designed to capture the spirit of VBCW with eccentric characters and Heath-Robinson devices, as well as resin models of iconic British symbols such as the post box.

Included in this growing range are figures inspired by a number of whimsical sources, from Wind in the Willows to Oh Mr. Porter via the Carry On films and Trumpton! Paul also releases figures based on fictitious VBCW personalities, such as BUF bounder Lord Cirencester, based on Sir Ian McKellen's portrayal of Richard III and other handy miniatures, including tank crews and the rip-roaring Croydon Crusher!

Mr. Hicks has also started a great range of figures for the early stages of WW1, including some very useful BEF miniatures.

Mystic Spirals' Pulp range contains a number of figures of interest to the VBCW enthusiast, including a vampire hunting paratrooper and some rather attractive young ladies, such as Roosevelt's Angels, for anyone wishing to add a little glamour to their faction.
